Wait, Square Enix Didn't Even Port Final Fantasy X|X-2 HD Remaster?

As is customary for any of its non-Eidos products, Square Enix spent a shameful span of time porting the recently released (in Japan) Final Fantasy X|X-2 HD Remaster to the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. Except, the thing is, it didn’t even work on the update – Shanghai studio Virtuos did.

The publisher had hinted in the past that, much like Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX, it was handling the upgrade internally – but that’s turned out not to be the case. Siliconera reports that the team behind the port is best known for converting 2K Sports titles to the Nintendo Wii, as well as collaborating on various Ben 10 releases. This is its biggest project to date.

@MadchesterManc Yeah, that's what I thought as well. I mean, the port's top-notch so I guess it doesn't really matter in the long-run - but it's crazy that this company takes so long to put stuff out. If it hasn't been working on this, then why is Final Fantasy XV - which it's been working on for a whole generation now - still supposedly so far away?

@get2sammyb Im guessing the staff are just goofing off playing frisbee with Jacobs Crackers while the interns work on all the games on a row of dusty MS-DOS computers in the corner. It would explain a few things

One of the SE team said they had to rebuild a Lot of the game because some of the original data was lost. I can't remember where i read the post but it come from an interview.So in that case they would need to redo the work their selves instead of leaving it to others
